How to work faster with PuTTY

The fact that we constantly have to type the same commands over and over again is time-consuming. Do you remember all those complicated sequences like when you want to access your log files, restart apache, open and edit your configuration files in your dedicated Web Server? How many times do you have to type “nano /var/log/apache2/access.log” without making a mistake? Wouldn’t it be a dream to have something else type all this for you?

Well, someone thought about it and it’s completely free. Mark my words, AutoHotkey is the answer. This program is what we call an automation program. With the help of “hotkeys”, it types whatever sequence you want it to type. Too good to be true? Yes, it is wonderful and yes, it’s true.

Give it a try. Just log on to their Website at http://www.autohotkey.com/ and download the small program.
